Title: Vivozoom claims best affiliate program in the world
Post by: Artemis on April 10, 2010, 16:19
Thought i'd share with you:
Vivozoom's New Affiliate Program - Probably the Best Affiliate Program in the World
"Visitors to Vivozoom can offer their friends a 20% discount and at the same time generate 15% affiliate income on all their friends' purchases for the next year.
 

From http://www.prweb.com/releases/2010/03/prweb2449054.htm (http://www.prweb.com/releases/2010/03/prweb2449054.htm)

Sales are non-existing for me there but i'm happy they're still trying to get it going. (although i fear the future might look pitchblack for them...)
From since they started i have a weak spot for them, truly hope it'll work out.

I think 'best in the world' is a little grandios.

It is nice to give your friend a discount too, but I think the 20% commission at Shutterstoc or better yet the 50% comission at Crestock trumps Vivozoom's deal.  15% is par at best.

Wow, i never knew about Crestock's 50% (only for 6 months though). But i fully agree, 'world's best' is a bit exagerated.
Plus, they might be better off offering something for recruiting new photographers as well...their database seems to be shrinking instead of growing  :-\
...but i guess that doesn't comply with the "selected by invitation" either.

Lee has blogged that Tony Stone is joining Vivozoom which makes them suddenly more attractive.  Do I also remember that an Ex-Getty exec started this agency?

What's the deal with these guys, they aren't even listed in the low earners.  Is anyone with them?

Ironically, leaf (http://www.vivozoom.com/viewportfolio-25265724) is.

I sent a message to delete my portfolio there just prior to hearing about the Tony Stone thing. But they already have some pretty savvy people working for them. Stone is an iconic figure for sure I'm just not sure how that would translate to a more successful micro agency. Perhaps successful here would be stretching the definition somewhat. To me, they seem to have done near nothing with regards to making sales in the past several months.

Funny!

Do they have some more jokes?

If I want I will give my image free of charge to my friend... This is really funny!

Old thread alert :)

It really looks like they're dying a slow death, even with this Tony Stone thing (unless they're plotting something behind the screens). Has anyone contributing to them had a sale (apart from the test ones in april 2009)? I haven't, not a single one.
They advertised with the big names, but seems like Yuri pulled his portfolio as well.
A pity, i always had a weak spot for Vivozoom :(

I had three sales last year in April and two in May this year. I stopped submitting to them last year in October. I did upload 5 image this month just to see if anything had change on the website.

You're the first person ever i heard that has (even if its only 2) sales there. (the ones in Apr 2009 were Vivozoom test downloads).
don't really think their future looks bright, eh  ::)
